Hi!

I installed this yesterday. While testing I figured out, that only one radio button shows for the first option, there is none in the next line for the second option. Tried Edge and Chrome, same problem.
What could be the reason? I did everything as shown in your screenshots.

Edit: Same with checkboxes (only option in first line with checkobox) and dropdown (all 4 lines make one single option)

Thanks
STK

Currently no, but I can think of how to do so, shouldn't be hard to implement. Currently chasing down a couple bugs from my client, but I'll consider adding this feature as well.
Little UP on this.

Try with a higher PHP version, this shouldn't be happening. I haven't had this happen on my site or my client's site.

Which PHP-Version would you recommend?
Try at least 8.0 and let me know.

I finally did it. What a mess...had to update my xampp installation. No test server, board 3 hours down. Next time I'll be faster.

Sadly, even with php 8.0.30, the result is the same:(

I don't have any problems with the board itself and all other extentions, but maybe my settings in php.ini are not all correct? Could I get an example?
Just in case this might be the reason for the forms not displaying correctly...

Cleared all data, tried again with the given form changed to checkboxes with 1,2,3 as options. Here's what the database says: see attachment.
Is that as it should be?

Edit: grr. I get an html error when uploading my pic...too wide, I guess
Edit 2: Hope you can still read it

It's odd, but somehow your entries are being saved as one big entry. That shouldn't be happening. The relevant piece of code that figures this out is:
serialize(explode(PHP_EOL, $entry_type_match))
(where $entry_type_match is the value of the field where you set the radio/checkbox values, being 1,2,3 in this case)
and that should be splitting your string properly. Oddly enough it's not detecting your newlines. Maybe there's something odd going on where PHP_EOL doesn't match what you're typing in.

I've just PRd a potential fix to the main branch of the github, please test that out for me. It also has a few other minor fixes as well (template image ordering was broken, there were references to smilies, among other things). I'm currently working through some issues I've been made aware of.

Thank you!
